Welcome to the show.

I'm Jordan Harbinger.

Of course, I'm here with my producer, Jason DeFilippo.

One of the running themes of my life.

And of this show is that surrounding yourself with high potential people dramatically increases

your chances for high potential outcomes.

In other words, having great people around you can help make you great.

And this isn't metaphysics or self-help BS.

This is the result of something called positive peer pressure.

It's just one of the topics we're discussing today on the show with happiness researcher

Sean Acor.

Now this makes sense, right?

Simply put, if your day can be ruined by someone with a bad attitude, then it can be

made better by the opposite.

But there's more to this principle as well.

In today's show, Sean shows us how we actually achieve and perform better when we help others

operate at their best.

This is counter to the American and Western ideals of being a lone hero, forging our path

alone and creating these circumstances predictably is an art and a science and can truly be a

force multiplier in your life.

But success in our personal and professional lives really isn't survival of the fittest.

It's survival of the best fit who were surrounded by as an even better predictor of success
